...Mary Quant, Mitzou of Madrid, Ariel of Paris. Sears (1965 sales: $6.9 billion) calls its collection "Junior Route 1966," describes it as "young, racy, right in style." The catalogue companies have not, of course, completely forsaken the good old-fashioned bestsellers. For livestock raisers, Sears still offers its "Ee-Zz Off Dehorner and Castration Set." Wards, which printed its first one-page mailorder "catalogue" in 1872, carries men's high-topped shoes for $12.97-but it does a much faster business in "bold, British-inspired demiboots" for teen-aged boys at $9.77.

...foursome must face lesser issues: for instance, how to keep Ringo from the clutches of an ineffectually diabolical oriental cult, a mad scientist armed with a portable model of Goldfinger's lazer, and Roger the man-eating tiger. The ceremonial ring of this cult, the Kaili (pronounced kah-ee-lee), is stuck on the fourth finger of Ringo's right hand, and without the ring the Kaili can't continue their sacrifices.

In fact, "I suppose the youngsters will call me a Mother Beatle," chirped Grade Fields, as she skittered onstage at Blackpool for a comeback after three years of goodbye on the Isle of Capri. To the oldsters, however, their sassy honey was still "Our Grade," and 3,000 of them stomped, clapped, wept and cheered for more as she hummed through her old routines, from by-crikey wheezes to such sticky trademarks as Now Is the Hour. "It isn't the money...
...glittering productions in the dismal new season on Broadway. It is the motif of the play and the motif of Playwright Jean Anouilh, who is perhaps the most produced of all living playwrights. Since the death of Jean Giraudoux almost 20 years ago, Anouilh (ahn-oo-ee) has been the essential voice of the French theater-a voice that speaks so dryly of shattered hope that you can almost hear it break...
